The dramatic, fjord-like Kotor bay is flecked with islands, fishing boats and rare sea birds. It is surrounded by steep mountainsides and is rightly a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
We fly into Dubrovnik, which is very close to the border with Montenegro. We stay right on the coast in the three-star Hotel Sun Resort, on the edge of the town of Herceg Novi in the beautiful Kotor Inlet. We enjoy relaxing by the hotel swimming pool or at its private seafront where the sun loungers are free for us to use. It may be helpful to note that as the surrounding area is hilly, there are a number of steps within the hotel site and on the excursions.
Wandering along the promenade with stunning views of the bay, stopping off at the cafés and restaurants, is a pleasant way to spend an afternoon. Make sure that you head into Herceg Novi's historic old town which is only a 15 minute walk away. For a more active adventure, why not try kayaking or stand up paddleboarding?
From crashing mountain streams to the refreshing lapping of the lagoons and pools that curl around the coast, Montenegro is a land of contrasts and beauty.
Our optional package of three excursions takes us to explore the highlights of the area: Dubrovnik, Kotor and the Blue Cave.
Kotor Bay is a magnificent sight, with intriguing islands and ancient monasteries. We travel around the edge of the bay by coach to reach the town of Kotor itself, famed for its Venetian city walls, dramatic waterfall and medieval old town.
For another excursion, a boat cruise takes us to the Blue Cave, where the water has a striking azure tint, with the opportunity to swim if you would like to do so.
The cost includes return flights from London to Dubrovnik with British Airways. It also includes airport taxes and charges, airport transfers, three-star hotel accommodation with air-conditioned, en-suite rooms for two, breakfast and evening meals while at our hotel. Optional excursion package: £88. The deposit is £50 if booking more than two months in advance (plus single room supplement, if applicable). For flight times, click 'View/Book'.
